Connecting the Hardware
Connecting power
The N-111 has a two position screw terminal which accepts input from an external
12VDC power supply. To connect an external power supply, use two wires, 16-28 AWG
in size. Strip about ¼” of the insulation from the end of the wires before inserting them
into the terminal block. Tighten the terminal screws to secure the wires in the terminal
block. Be sure that the polarity of the applied power is as indicated. Connecting power
with incorrect polarity may damage the N-111.
The N-111 is also capable of being powered over the network connection through
802.3af Power over Ethernet (PoE). To power a N-111 over POE connect one end of an
Ethernet cable to the N-111’s Ethernet port and the other end to a PSE network switch,
midspan injector, or similar device capable of providing power over an Ethernet
connection in accordance with the 802.3af POE standard. When used in this
configuration the DC power input terminal block should not be connected to a power
supply.
Connecting to the network
Connect one end of an Ethernet cable to the N-111’s Ethernet port and the other end of
a cable to the Ethernet network.
